Obtaining an Online ID
If you only want to obtain or renew
an Online ID, please go straight to Request a BCRA
Online ID
and ignore the rest of of this page.
Most of BCRA's online content is Open Access – either the downloads are free
(indicated by an open padlock
next to the reference)
or, if they are articles in Cave & Karst Science or Speleology, you can apply
for a free online ID. You do not need to do that in advance as it is part of the
procedure for downloading a document. For the CREG journal, you need to pay a small fee
using the CREG Journal Order Form.

How An Online ID works
You do not need an online ID to view any lists of items in our
Bibliograph listings. You only need an ID if you actually want to read
an article. You do not have to log in first. You will be asked to log in only
after you have tried to download an item that requires a login..
Access to CREG Journals
From July 2024 a standard BCRA Member's ID does not give
access to the CREG journal.
You can purchase an annual login for the CREG journal by using the CREG Journal Order Form. If you pay for a subscription on paper, this
comes with a free online ID, otherwise there is a small charge for the ID.
The reason for this is that – like all of BCRA's Special Interest Groups – CREG
receives no central funding from BCRA, and so it charges a small subscription to help fund its
operations.
Subscriber Access to C&KS
If you are a Non-Member Subscriber to Cave and Karst Science we can issue you with
a free yearly login, on request. This option is suitable for libraries, universities and
other organisations that subscribe to C&KS.
We can also issue you with IP access on request. Please email
Publications-Admin@... to request access.
